Yes Pogo, it was either two or three true Conservatives who voted against Ginsberg. I’ve forgotten the exact count. And isn’t that the problem?
The Senate is a vast wasteland. And even though John McCain helped make it that way, folks now want to install him into the White House.
Why is the Senate so fricken bad? It’s because we have accepted RINOs until we’re blue in the face. Now we want to place one of the absolute worst, in the White House.
Look at what this guy has been up to. Do you honestly think he is going to back our play at all over the next eight years? He didn’t over the last eight.
We rail on the Democrats for voting for folks like Ginsberg, but if our team does it all is forgiven. Why is that? What does a vote for Ginsberb by McCain tell us, if not that he is not a Conservative?
Everything you say against McCain is true. But if you hold out for better (and, as a result of such decisions by you and others like you, HillObama wins), we will be saddled with 3 or even more SCOTUS Justices who are 40-year-old versions of Ginsburg. That is a legacy that 2012 and 2016 cannot undo, no matter how well the conservatives do in those elections and for decades upon decades thereafter. I have yet to hear you justify that tradeoff or even try to. I think you cannot, except perhaps to yourself.
